U2Calls Out Trump In Grammy Performance: Blessed Are The Shithole Countries

U2 took on President Donald Trump  on Sunday in a “resistance”-themed Grammy performance that took place on a barge with the Statue of Liberty serving as a dramatic backdrop. 

In a pre-taped segment, the band performed its new song, “Get Out Of Your Own Way,” in which frontman Bono sings: 

Fight back
Don’t take it lyin’ down, you got to bite back
The face of Liberty’s starting to crack
She had a plan up until she got smacked in the mouth
And it all went south

At the end of the song, Bono pulled out a bullhorn and said, “Blessed are the shithole countries, for they gave us the American dream.” Trump reportedly used that phrase to describe Haiti and some African nations while meeting with lawmakers to discuss immigration. 

Before the segment, U2 was introduced by Cuban-born singer Camila Cabello , who shared her family’s immigration story  and called for viewers to support young undocumented immigrants, also known as Dreamers.
